[ale] device busy...

[Paul D. Manno]

David,

Keep in mind the mos common reason for "busy" is that some program has the 
filesystem open -- including if you are in a directory on that filesystem.
I think you'll want to use the "lsof" command.  Something like:
	lsof +d /your/mounted/filesystem

See man page for myriad of options.
